The Los Angeles Rams may or may not be sizing up the prospects of selecting a rookie quarterback in the 2026 NFL Draft. The class is not particularly talented in the sense that they are clearly plug-and-play ready in the NFL. But Los Angeles is a unique situation. The team needs a quarterback successor, but has the timeline to allow for a rookie to arrive and ramp up for the pros for a season.
Knowing this, Los Angeles has an advantage in the 2026 NFL Draft that other teams do not. Their rookie prospect can develop for a season in the NFL.
